the_o israelite_n desire_v a_o king_n they_o desire_v no_o more_o than_o the_o completion_n of_o god_n own_o promise_n to_o they_o there_o be_v nothing_o sinful_a in_o their_o desire_n but_o the_o excess_n of_o it_o it_o be_v come_v to_o this_o nay_o but_o we_o will_v have_v a_o king_n and_o than_o god_n send_v they_o a_o king_n in_o his_o anger_n and_o many_o infamous_a calamity_n during_o the_o whole_a course_n of_o his_o reign_n nor_o be_v rachel_n desire_n of_o child_n any_o other_o then_o natural_a and_o just_a till_o it_o come_v to_o this_o impatience_n give_v i_o child_n or_o else_o i_o die_v and_o than_o god_n disappoint_v she_o with_o a_o grant_n and_o punish_v she_o with_o her_o very_a wish_n for_o she_o die_v in_o child-bearing_a all_o thing_n be_v lawful_a for_o i_o say_v the_o apostle_n but_o i_o will_v not_o come_v under_o the_o power_n of_o any_o and_o so_o in_o like_a manner_n the_o desire_n of_o all_o thing_n be_v lawful_a while_o it_o be_v temperate_a but_o a_o impetuous_a desire_n grow_v a_o master_n in_o the_o soul_n it_o bring_v it_o under_o its_o power_n and_o our_o freedom_n and_o our_o reason_n and_o our_o conscience_n too_o must_v upon_o occasion_n submit_v to_o its_o tyranny_n hence_o it_o come_v to_o pass_v that_o the_o desire_n of_o riches_n do_v very_o often_o absolute_o profane_v the_o soul_n and_o turn_v the_o temple_n of_o god_n into_o mere_a shop_n and_o exchange_n when_o the_o man_n shall_v be_v religious_a his_o thought_n be_v never_o at_o home_o they_o be_v abroad_o in_o attendance_n upon_o the_o design_n in_o

of_o the_o accept_v sacrifice_n mount_v direct_o to_o heaven_n but_o the_o covetous_a man_n desire_n do_v like_o the_o reject_a smoke_n incline_v all_o downward_o and_o spend_v itself_o upon_o the_o earth_n he_o be_v restless_a in_o contrivance_n and_o hardy_a in_o pursuit_n confident_a in_o attempt_n and_o bold_a and_o importunate_a in_o address_n and_o what_o be_v worse_o he_o look_v upon_o

the_o poor_a emet_fw-fr tug_v for_o a_o heap_n of_o earth_n with_o more_o toil_n or_o less_o religion_n than_o he_o thus_o do_v man_n in_o the_o first_o place_n vitiate_v riches_n by_o desire_n and_o

that_o the_o worldly_a man_n study_v nothing_o so_o accurate_o as_o his_o title_n to_o his_o estate_n and_o yet_o when_o all_o be_v do_v he_o mistake_v it_o for_o he_o count_v himself_o a_o proprietor_n where_o he_o be_v but_o a_o steward_n for_o the_o good_a thing_n of_o this_o life_n be_v by_o no_o mean_n the_o christian_n portion_n god_n never_o consign_n they_o to_o we_o into_o

debt_n it_o be_v therefore_o the_o wise_a man_n care_n to_o make_v friend_n with_o the_o mammon_n to_o sow_v as_o he_o hope_v to_o reap_v to_o justify_v his_o expense_n and_o to_o bless_v the_o

his_o own_o the_o first_o inference_n he_o make_v be_v this_o that_o he_o may_v do_v with_o it_o what_o he_o please_v that_o he_o may_v either_o spend_v it_o upon_o his_o own_o luxury_n or_o hoard_v it_o up_o for_o that_o of_o his_o heir_n and_o thus_o he_o elude_v all_o the_o obligation_n of_o charity_n and_o esteem_v the_o cast_v his_o bread_n upon_o the_o water_n as_o great_a a_o folly_n in_o the_o figure_n as_o it_o be_v in_o the_o letter_n it_o be_v thus_o that_o dives_fw-la in_o the_o parable_n have_v carve_v for_o himself_o who_o when_o he_o petition_v for_o a_o drop_n of_o water_n to_o allay_v his_o torment_n his_o mouth_n be_v stop_v and_o his_o petition_n reject_v with_o this_o sole_a answer_n son_n remember_v that_o thou_o in_o thy_o life-time_n have_v thy_o good_a thing_n questionless_a many_o a_o man_n have_v have_v his_o good_a thing_n in_o his_o life-time_n and_o yet_o his_o share_n after_o this_o life_n not_o a_o jot_n the_o less_o but_o this_o be_v dives_n his_o
